If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

I wish I saw Miles Davis play before he died, even though he was a shadow of himself at the end.

"The basic plot is that Donna Speir and Hope Marie Carlton, the two undercover DEA agent Playboy Playmates from the last movie, are still running around in jungle shorts, cowboy boots and spaghetti strap T-shirts, firing their machine guns at drug smugglers, Filipino communist guerrillas, and corrupt federal agents while their two friends, Lisa London and Miss May 1984 Patty Duffek, lounge around the pool a lot and talk on speaker phones that look like fax machines."-Joe Bob on SAVAGE BEACH

I wish I saw Miles Davis play before he died, even though he was a shadow of himself at the end.

And his death was handled quite secretly. He may have died of AIDS.

I wish I had seen THE BEATLES, THE ROLLING STONES, BLUE CHEER... but I'm too young for them, though THE STONES aren't yet ruled out. I wish I had seen NEIL YOUNG, FRANK SINATRA, SARAH VAUGHAN, JUNE CHRISTY, but I wasn't into them enough at the time they were still performing (except NEIL YOUNG which no one I knew was interested in seeing, though he is not yet ruled out either...) I wish I'd seen RAMONES, THE CRAMPS, PINK FLOYD, LED ZEPPELIN...

I've seen lots of bands, but there's always more I'm ready to see or would have liked to have.

I've been fortunate enough to see most of my favorite bands at least once over the years. The one hold out I can think of off the top of my head is Helloween, who until fairly recently rarely toured the US, and even now only make occasional jumps across the ocean.

I also regret never getting to see the late, great Ronnie James Dio live in any of his bands (i.e. Rainbow, Black Sabbath, DIO, Heaven and Hell)... four or five years ago my brother and his friends were going to see the "Metal Masters" tour (Judas Priest and Heaven and Hell together) and asked if I wanted "in," but at the time I was too broke so I had to pass, saying "I'll catch 'em next time they come around"... and of course, there was no next time. I'll be kickin' myself for that one for the rest of my life.
